Alphaville

Behold! The great beast. From enormous means and sweeping vision Digested existence In the mouth of Moloch The dead kiss of luxury Keeps you a slave Whispering softly: ‘Now, back to work’. What magnificence! Deluded offspring Inherit arrogance where the strong become weak Dead splendor Excelsior. Suffering pleasure Excelsior. Bread of shame Excelsior. Electric utopia For unworthy sons Mother of greed Devotion devoid Excelsior prime

Are you pleased? We gaze down upon the heavens in your name. There you are: A grand gesture of power and wealth Cathedral of Commerce For in speed we dwelt Thrusting forward Through perpetual darkness We worship a thunderbolt Made by man In the palace of Eden

Dawn of new gems Arrival time departure Move past the scum Toward the gilded light Great city seen below And so it is above Observance astral vision Fornicate fake flesh Her mechanized beauty Destination: Enlightenment Alphaville. Alphaville. Beg for it my child Beg to be absolved of adversity Asynchronous kingdom Systematic pointillism All order provides Population complacent Suffering in black filth All order provides Ce que tout le monde dit doit être vrai. Cast out to die Convergence; man and machine Destination: Enlightenment Better taught than fed There is no why only because Displaced high thought Destination: Despair What everyone says must be true Collect conform collapse état de contrôle état de contrôle

The roaring heights Civilization Commerce is subsistence Metropolitan electric minds A future so bright For the greater good All guilt, all judgement Weave the divine web All the same for the sake of it all What you do not know cannot hurt you! Dogma of the day A future so bright For the greater good All guilt, all judgement Weave the divine web Buy what you are sold Believe it, fool! Indoctrinated life A good so great. Reach high for the gold That is just out of reach No worries. The future is bright.

Loud echoes from the end Nothing but a flat lie All I need is a new world Create my universe [Chorus]: The four basic forces Are ready and fixed All set to prove myself It really exists Risk it, try it, find it ! If my body cannot stand Don't wanna be born again I have enough of my land Putting myself in this project Within a space that's still secret Am I to blame for future fate ? A ball of energy Vortex around me I have to realize My theory is wise [Chorus] The four basic forces Are ready and fixed All set to prove myself It really exists Risk it, try it, find it ! I think I've found the way I wanna move not stay Time is fast and so unsafe Conquest is what I can expect Without frontiers there's no respect The less you give the more I take Burst getting stronger In atoms smasher Powerful magnets Interchange the mass Annihilation, a full reaction The protons travel In a big circle Meeting in this race Their mirror-image Dematerialized Body lost its size Tube without exit No way out of it Micro-galaxies A lot more to see Magnetic fusion My self-creation I'm in the machine Going through my dreams Dimension Hatröss Dimension Hatröss
